Draft Genome Sequence of a mcr-1/IncI2-carrying multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli B1: ST101 isolated from meat and meat products in Egypt

ConclusionHere we reported the first draft genome sequence of an mcr-1/IncI2-carrying multidrug-resistant E. coli B1:ST101 isolated from beef sausage in Egypt. This study highlights the potential role played by food products in the spread of colistin resistance to humans.
